WowWee Fingerlings Baby Elephant - Nina (Pink) - Interactive Toy

My daughter loves this toy. A+

My kids love these little fingerlings - while they are not the most interactive or educational toys they are fun and have been encouraging my children to free play and interact with each other and other toys. The toys are quiet small and do fit on a childs finger and says some pretty cute and sweet things. They also give kisses - if you blow a kiss, they will blow one back to you! Sweet little toys that kids seem to love.

My kids really enjoyed playing with this character. They thought she was so pretty. They played with her a lot. The quality seemed very good. My kids aren’t always the gentlest, and the toy did just fine. It seemed durable. It is very pretty. It is made well. There are a lot of details to it, which are really nice. My kids can just spend hours with characters. It just beats them staring at a screen. This would make a nice gift, too. I would recommend it.

I have purchased a few of these for my five year old daughter. She loves them. I’ve also used them as gifts for kids parties. The pink one was well received.

Bought on sale ($5) as stocking stuffer. Daughter found it in hiding place well before then and has been playing with this since. She loves pink and elephants and rhis has become her new best friend. Takes it everywhere

Great stocking stuffers

Received on time, in nice packaging … its a Xmas gift, so dont know yet if it works as advertised. Im sure my niece (3 years old) will love it.

Super cute fella and the baby loved it!

Ive sent quite a few Fingerlings as gifts, as they were the must have toy. Ive never opened & experienced one before & while its cute, the claims of 40 plus noises & special features seem to fall short with Nina the elephant. Before I get into what she does (not much) & she doesnt, some tips. She is strapped in to her packaging with a clear band around the neck. Small fingers may be able to untie from the back but most likely scissors will be needed. I found using full size adult scissors, it was easiest to pull the toy away from package. Made it easier for the scissors to cut the elastic while stretched, otherwise you may scratch the toy. The instruction page is hidden in the blue paper base Nina sits on. I never would have seen this, or even looked, If I wasnt desperate to make this work by looking at YouTube vids. Btw, currently Feb 2019, No YouTube info on use of the Fingerling elephant. The vids I did find make you think you are missing something. Youre not. Its easy to find the switch on the back of the head to turn on. However, it does time out after inactivity, when it says bye bye, so you must turn On & Off to reactivate. Which brings me to Nina. She is suppose to record your voice by holding a sensor in front of her right ear for 2 seconds. After a grueling 10 minutes & about 40 times of Nina saying hi, I admit defeat on voice recording. If it works, it didnt on my model but, its new so there may be bugs to work out. Nina, as all Fingerlings makes noises that are a cross between a babys coo, a Japanese cartoon & a cats purr. It is higher pitched. Like the voice we all involuntarily make when we see a newborn. She does with certain features, like when you pet her, mix in a soft elephant call. You can pet her, clap, cradle her to sleep, hang her upside down. Every action brings a variation of the same sound. Its a cooing/purring/ cartoon voice combined with blinking eyes. She does do the infamous Fingerling fart when you hold sensors in front of both ears at once. Its a cute gadget & I get the draw. The large black, blinking, anime inspired eyes. The geisha like giggling. I can see this as a kids toy or adult stress relief item like a spinner. The Fingerlings grip will only slide onto small fingers & the arms & legs do not move, its hard plastic. The entire toy is heavy, as it holds 4 watch sized batteries, casing & Ninas voice box Also its rather large, as a whole, for a childs finger. Look at the pic on the page with the child model, Its as big as the kids whole hand. I know this review is more clinical than Omg, my kid loves it but, its the first time Ive held one & kinda shocked no review mentions the size & weight of this thing. I get kids want what they want & its nice to see something that pulls them out of a digital world. For fifteen bucks, I guess it cant hurt. Just feel like the next step is a robot dog vs the connection of a real pet. Maybe its better sitting on a desk or a nightstand than a finger but it is cute.

My 10-year-old daughter and her friends love these things. She recently got this baby elephant to add to her small but growing collection. My impressions... GENERAL IMPRESSION I was prepared to dislike this before it arrived. I really try to avoid toys that that make a lot of noise. But when I saw my daughter playing imaginitive games with this, along with her friends, I thought it was fairly cute. The color, size, and proportions make this toy kind of adorable. Even the noises it makes are not bad -- kind of mild and low-volume enough to be all right. Just in case, theres an easy-to-access power switch! The quality is good. The toy is made of a kind of heavier-grade plastic, which gives it some heft. The arms and legs are sturdy and attached firmly enough for my daughter to make it grasp things, and it holds on well. It seems that the toy will hold up to use. As a nice touch, it comes with a battery already installed. SOUNDS AND INTERACTIVITY The toy is supposed to make 40 different sounds. I havent been counting, but I dont think Ive heard 40 -- at least not yet! The toy interacts, making different sounds when patted on the head, rocked back and forth, tickled, or laid on its back. It also turns its head side-to-side with some of the sounds. CONCLUSIONS My daughter and her friends love these things, and they all have a few different ones now. As a parent, I approve, and find them playful and fun.
